Quintonil, Ciudad de México

Avant-garde Mexican: Quintonil is the setting for chef Jorge Vallejo’s boundary-pushing Mexican cuisine and his wife Alejandra Flores’ exceptional hospitality. Focused on fresh, local ingredients and traditional Mexican flavours and techniques weaved into modern preparations, it is fast becoming a classic.

Herbaceous medleys: Named after a green herb that features in some of the dishes and drinks, Quintonil brings a unique brand of creativity to the plate. The tasting menu might contain seasonal dishes such as tamales of duck pibil with elote cream, braised oxtail in traditional black recado sauce, crème fraîche with melipona honey or prickly pear sorbet. Many of the ingredients travel just 30 metres from urban garden to plate.
